JosephParticipant
“Frum” like Avi Weiss.
December 6, 2015 9:35 pm at 9:35 pm in reply to: Bais yaakov cookbook doesn't have recipe for latkes? #1115013JosephParticipantLatkes are so pashut for every Beis Yaakov grad, that it doesn’t even need elaboration.
It’s like a boys aleph beis.
JosephParticipantConsidering the inflation over the last half a decade, has the tipping amount increased?
How much do you tip boys rebbeim and girls morahs and how many times a year do you tip?
December 6, 2015 6:54 pm at 6:54 pm in reply to: The NASI Project – an updated assesement of this shidduch initiative #1116051JosephParticipantSDD, how do you define and explain the current shiddduch crisis?
December 6, 2015 3:47 pm at 3:47 pm in reply to: The NASI Project – an updated assesement of this shidduch initiative #1116049JosephParticipantThat’s supposed to be akuperma’s line.
December 6, 2015 2:35 pm at 2:35 pm in reply to: The NASI Project – an updated assesement of this shidduch initiative #1116047JosephParticipantIs the shiddduch crisis over?
December 6, 2015 6:21 am at 6:21 am in reply to: Do you know why the crock pot was invented? #1115214JosephParticipantWhat do goyim use crockpots for? (At one time I was surprised to see them being sold by goyish stores.)
JosephParticipantShakespeare uses methinks.
December 4, 2015 8:26 pm at 8:26 pm in reply to: when do we start saying vsan tal umatar this year #1196791JosephParticipantAfter civil year 2100, as happened last after civil year 1900, the civil date of the switch to vsein tal umatar for the next hundred years will change.
(Am I starting to sound like 147?)
JosephParticipantFWIW, the wedding was an official Christian church service with the galachim conducting a religious ceremony and prayers.
JosephParticipantWolf, I would never take JPost (or other Israeli papers) at their word. Especially an article referring to events 20 years prior on a different continent. In any event, if you look at the JTA article from 1981, the Chief Rabbi said he wasn’t snubbed.
JosephParticipantWolf, as I recall he arranged not to be invited as otherwise he would have been invited and he wouldn’t attend. There wasn’t a change in Royal protocol between Charles and William’s weddings as to whether the Chief Rabbi should be invited.
JosephParticipantAs the parent, you should nix it.
JosephParticipantWhy do you think they are called “bumpers”?
And if your bumper touches the next cars bumper while parking, there isn’t any damage.
JosephParticipantChazal tell us even reading the wrong books is dangerous and assur.
shaichus?
If reading the wrong books is dangerous and assur, al achus kama vkama having unfiltered internet is dangerous and assur.
December 4, 2015 4:11 am at 4:11 am in reply to: Deceiving by super quick engagement and wedding #1114874JosephParticipanton multiple occasions now I have seen someone get strongly pressured into engagement or marriage
How can/does a potential fiance or fiance pressure their potential fiance/fiance to quickly get engaged or married?
Why can’t the person simply say no or not so fast? (i.e. two weeks of dating isn’t enough; I need another week or two.)
JosephParticipantMamish goyish.
JosephParticipantChazal tell us even reading the wrong books is dangerous and assur.
December 3, 2015 9:24 pm at 9:24 pm in reply to: The NASI Project – an updated assesement of this shidduch initiative #1116045JosephParticipant4) Are boys dating and marrying earlier or girls dating and marrying later than they had prior to NASI?
5) Are boys coming home from Eretz Yisroel earlier than they used to? Have any of the newer plans from NASI materialized?
JosephParticipantWolf, it makes a point, though, that I was bringing out. The menfolk respect older and wiser. In fact older as wiser. Indeed looking older (even if not older) gives a wiser impression.
JosephParticipantThe Chief Rabbi at the time did not go to the wedding of Prince Charles and Diana.
JosephParticipantRabbi Eleazar ben Azaryah I think is in Berochos 28a.
December 3, 2015 8:10 pm at 8:10 pm in reply to: Arguing over whether humans are alone in the universe #1115830JosephParticipantAliens even post in the CR.
JosephParticipantBecause I like akuperma and always appreciate his input.
JosephParticipantYou’ll read it in the Hagadah at the Seder.
JosephParticipantNo, the ones I gave you. 😉
JosephParticipantMen’s endeavor is to look older and wiser.
Rabbi Eleazar ben Azaryah… Harei ani keven shivim shana…
JosephParticipantPerhaps these kinds of mistakes are made by people who habitually talk during davening and never got their davening straightened out.
JosephParticipantBecause women are permitted to wear beged isha.
December 3, 2015 4:01 am at 4:01 am in reply to: Invited to the Wedding Feast, not the Ceremony-would you be offended? #1142969JosephParticipantMy vote’s with you. Ceremony invitation suffices.
JosephParticipantKeep up the great commentary, Reb akuperman.
JosephParticipantMaybe I could get my street plowed first, if I called the head of the Department of Public Works.
Wouldn’t that be wrong to do?
JosephParticipant<bump>
JosephParticipantPirkei Avos had something to say on this topic.
JosephParticipantAs much as I don’t know you, Wolf, the little I know tells me you’re a tzadik. And if you deny this it must be because you don’t properly understand the definition of a tzadik. I know you daven three times a day, eat strictly kosher, help your family, raise children to be ehrlich and Torah observant, help others and love your fellow Jews.
I also see in the past you hadn’t protested against others judging you negatively, only protesting those judging you positively. You are, in addition to your other fine attributes, an anav too.
JosephParticipantNot according to Joseph. Rather, according to the Chofetz Chaim.
Anyways, since you are a tzadik, Wolf, the tradition is to kiss your hand.

JosephParticipantMDG, so you limit yourself to certain mitzvos and eschew other mitzvos… I choose to do all mitzvos as frequently as possible, without one mitzvah being an excuse to avoid another mitzvah. Deriding apikorsum is a mitzvah and not something to avoid.
JosephParticipantDoes that mean that it might be preferable for one to avoid water without a hechsher?
JosephParticipantDid you overlook the Chofetz Chaim saying it is a “mitzvah” to put down apikorsum? Do you not want to get as many mitzvos as possible?
JosephParticipant“The OO are apikorsum.”
That is well known. What are you gaining from repeating the obvious? What’s your need?
“???? ???? ?????? ???? ??? ??? ?’ ???? ?’ – ????: “???? ?????? ?????? ??? ??? ????????? ????? ?????? ??????? ??? ?????? ???? ??? ??????”.
JosephParticipantMDG: The OO are apikorsum.
“???? ???? ?????? ???? ??? ??? ?’ ???? ?’ – ????: “???? ?????? ?????? ??? ??? ????????? ????? ?????? ??????? ??? ?????? ???? ??? ??????”.
So for you to come here to defend apikorsum by asking why are they being put down, I refer you to the aforementioned Chofetz Chaim.
JosephParticipantWolf: How is how one dresses in front of guests different from a tznius perspective than how one dresses out in public? edited
JosephParticipantOr The Donald.
JosephParticipantHow does Norton Family compare with K9 for a Windows PC?
JosephParticipantYou must have quite the imagination.
Do you always disagree with the seforim hakedoshim?
JosephParticipantSo you’re dissatisfied whether someone responds too thoroughly (in your esteemed estimation) and if someone responds not at all. Interesting. It’s okay that your nervousness is pointed out to you. And there are no previous discussions of this topic by this poster. (Or by others insofar as I can tell.) But if this is your definition of high level, who am I to argue with you.
JosephParticipantMir Yerushalayim or Mir New York? On the stationary it says “Mirrer Yeshiva”.
JosephParticipantThis is high level to you? You seem a tad nervous. Do some discussions get under your skin? The only place you saw this previously discussed in recent memory is if you pursued through nonpublished material.
JosephParticipantWho’s the family patriarch when you’re wearing a skirt?
JosephParticipantNo, musical instruments have kinda gone out of fashion and people no longer teach them.
